FFS, they do not handle at all bad once you have lowered them. The standard suspension has a LOT to be desired
I do not care, I am going to get Nova with a set of Bilstein shocks.

does it overboost from low revs.
are you getting any vibration when the engine is on.
when was the cam belt checked
if you hear a ticking noise coming from the drivers side wing above the front wheel it is the charcoal filter this is a normal noise.

Take it to a garage (not Fiat) and get them to look at it.

It normally goes off the top of the gauge when you floor it at low revs in 3rd and 4th.

when the car is warm put your foot down in 3rd from around 2000rpm. at 3000rpm the boost gauge should go into the red for a second then settle at about 3/4 then it will slowly drop to 1/2ish. if it does not do this then your peirburgh valve(ECU boost controller) has been replaced by a bleed valve
